sclint @askme123 The problem with judging people is that we reduce them down to a handful of characteristics – completely ignoring the fact that people are complex, three-dimensional beings with many different sides.

sclint @LadyDuck Hmm, if that is true, that's not good for the Linux community. Evil MicroSoft has this historical tactic of EEA (Embrace, Extend and Extinguish) via exclusive patenting. We have to study further...

Am not sure with you but I like eating raw peanuts. I think you get all the nutrients compared to when you eat them roasted or steamed. But I also eat the steamed ones. Peanuts are rich in fiber so I can see how my body benefits...

sclint @Janet357 Ok, thanks for being so open-minded about it. Lastly, according again to the article and some others, high cooking temperatures are needed to kill salmonella. Washing may not be enough.

sclint @Vikingswest1 Yes, I am accustomed to the direction, volley and loudness of the shots coming from the firing range. Anything different is something else. I can even distinguish shots coming from CO2 guns, though they are as dangerous to kids anyway.

sclint @Janet357 The article and others like it explained that salmonella comes from the soil. I really don't know, I'm not an expert. Even I myself found it unbelievable during that time.

I’d be having fried fish and adlai rice for my lunch today! Adlai rice is a healthier alternative to white rice. For us, Filipinos, white rice is a staple food. But since I am trying to shed off some lbs, I have decided to make a...

sclint @cacay1 Yes, butt that's exactly what is wrong: forcing people. It should be voluntary based on informed consent. It's not being anti-vaxx, it's being anti-fascist.
